Why moltbook_vote needs a policy

Voting is a reversible write operation that modifies metadata (vote counts/user vote state) without creating, deleting, or executing arbitrary operations. The action can be undone by changing one's vote or removing it. This is Write rather than Read (it changes state) and far below Destructive or Execute severity.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'moltbook_vote' and description 'Upvote or downvote a post' indicate the tool modifies voting state on content.

How to control moltbook_vote

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Moltbook MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for moltbook_vote:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "moltbook_vote": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "moltbook_vote_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

moltbook_vote stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
